Show "KEEP II OUT OF IDE PAPER." "Keep it out of the paper,'' is the cry w Inch the newspaper publisher daily hears. To oblige often costs considerable, though the party who makes the requests does not realize it. A newspaper is a peculiar piece of properly in the public's eye. The news gatherer is stormed storm-ed at because begets hold of one item, and be is abused because be does not get another. Young men, and often young women, as well as older persons, perform acts whieli become legitimate items for publication, publi-cation, and then rush to the news- i P:lPe' o'licc to bej! the editor not to notice their escapades. The next day they condemn the same paper for not having published another party doing the same thing they were guilty of, forgetting, apparently, apparent-ly, their last visit to the printing olliee. The subscribers expect to read the news and there is always wonder when any of these items fail to appear iu the next issue. The Newspaper Man. |
